No apology necessary or wanted...except from corrupt politicians and corporate shills.

Its like this government shut down the USA is having right now...everyone involved needs to be fired..period. Its like a kindergarten class or worse perhaps..."I am not going to talk to you anymore because you are saying something I dont like".

These are the "supposed" leaders of the free world...smh.

The biggest problem I see with the partial government shutdown is that it won't be permanent. The other problem is that it's too small in scope.

You could always just move somewhere without a functional government. Parts of Somalia and Afghanistan would
be obvious choices. Or maybe the Papua New Guinea jungle? The outer islands of the Solomons are pretty lawless. And you could go today. Its not like they have a government to stop you.

Perhaps you European fellows are ill-informed about the partial government shutdowns in the US. They're basically just a small army of bureaucrats getting an extra paid vacation. Every government function that matters is unaffected.
